. >> well, there's new evidence tonight mitt romney's suffering after his own moment of impact. these words could follow him the rest of his life. >> there are 47% of the people who will vote for the president no matter what. my job is not to worry about those people. they should take personal responsibility for their lives. have i to convince the 5% that are independent. >> romney's 47% comments just won't go away. in fact, the "new york times" crunched the poll data to find out if the 47% comment is actually hurting the candidate. the poll numbers are pretty steady until romney's 47% comments hits the news. the president is holding on to all of his post-convention gains and keeps gaining. romney is barely holding on or he's losing likely voters as a result of the hidden camera comments. romney's got another problem. lots of candidates have been caught making embarrassing mistakes, but romney was caught saying something that he really believes. joining me now, john nichols. great to you have with us tonight. you think romney's comment is a gaffe like the ones we have seen from

i think romney will take some hard shots. he may spend the whole 90 minutes blasting away at the president, serving him with one indictment after another, hoping that something will stick. i think obama will play with him, block the blows, try to keep his head clear so he can avoid getting hurt. i think it will start slow with both men trying to be cautious, neither able to land a punch. then it will happen. romney will deliver what is clearly a prerehearsed moment, a sound bite, something about obama not delivering on a promise, something about the economy. he will expect the president to defend himself. and when he does, romney will pounce. he'll say obama is not running again bush. get obama to pass the buck on the tough economic recovery and land his sunday punch. i suppose president obama knows this is all coming and is preparing to do with it. a month ago all romney had to say was obama has done his best, got his stimulus, his health care program and here we are. i think that might have nailed it a month ago. but someth
